A charity has unveiled five new animal sculpture designs for its 2025 Summer GoGo Safari trail.

Break, based in Norfolk, unveiled the statues on Thursday, which will be worked on by artists before being scattered across the county.

The sculpture trails debuted in 2013, and have seen gorillas, hares, dinosaurs and cows in Norfolk and Cambridgeshire.

The Zoological Society of East Anglia, which is supporting the trail, said: "Participating in the trail will help us shine a spotlight on our vital conservation work."
